Middle School Assistant Principal of Humanities or STEM (2027-2028)
for headings. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We need to extract content.
Let's parse the posting.
First paragraph: "Follow your passion Are you ready to help build the next chapter of educational excellence? At Zeta, we pursue an unprecedented combination of high academic achievement and social-emotional development for our students. We insist that every student receives a world-class education while fostering a love for learning. We are passionate about changing..." This is about the organization. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About Zeta". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly.
We have "The role at a glance" with bullet points: Role: Assistant Principal of Middle School (Humanities or STEM concentration) Start date: Early July 2027 Location: Bronx or Upper Manhattan Work model: Fully on-site in New York City Salary range: $105,000 - $122,000 starting salary Reports to: Principal We hire for this role at different points throughout the year as positions become available, and onboard on a rolling basis. If your experience aligns with what we are looking for, our team may reach out to explore a current or upcoming opportunity and whether the timing is right for both you and Zeta. Compensation is determined according to Zeta's applicable salary scale, which factors in relevant experience and internal equity. This position is eligible to receive an annual discretionary, merit-based performance bonus.
That's details about role, start date, location, work model, salary range, reports to, hiring timeline, compensation details. Could go under "About the role" (maybe includes role overview). Also "Pay" section: Salary range and bonus.
"Who you are" includes qualifications: Bachelor's degree, min 1 year as Assistant Principal, min 2 years classroom teaching, deep understanding of effective Middle School Humanities or STEM instruction, experience using data, proven ability to develop people, strong judgment, high expectations.
That's requirements/qualifications/skills.
"What you'll be doing" is responsibilities.
"Join our purpose-driven community" maybe about culture, could be part of "About the role" or maybe "Benefits"? Not exactly.
"How does Zeta invest in you?" includes benefits: medical/dental/vision, FSA, 403(b) matching, competitive compensation, relocation support, monthly stipend for wellness, Talkspace sessions, Headspace, MacBook Air, phone reimbursement, stocked snacks, swag, team outings, sweet treats, books/resources for PD. Also "Clear pathways to professional growth", consistent feedback, Community Circle, Interactive Mindfulness and DEIJ programming.
Thus we can create sections:
- About the role: maybe a paragraph summarizing role and mission. Could include the opening paragraph about Zeta mission and the role at a glance details (excluding salary maybe). But we also have Pay section separate.
- Responsibilities: from "What you'll be doing" bullet list.
- Requirements: maybe combine "Who you are" bullet list (education, experience, etc.) Could split into Requirements (education, experience) and Qualifications (skills) but we can just have Requirements and Qualifications as separate if content fits.
- Skills: maybe the abilities like data-driven coaching, developing people, judgment, etc. Could be part of Qualifications.
- Benefits: from "How does Zeta invest in you?" bullet list.
- Pay: salary range and bonus.
- Schedule: maybe work model (Fully on-site) and start date? Could be schedule: Fully on-site in New York City, start date Early July 2027. That's schedule info.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections where we have real content.
Let's craft.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. So no heading for "Assistant Principal of Middle School". Use About the role heading.
We must not include Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, work authorization, etc. Also remove "Apply Now", "Equity is at the heart of our mission..." etc. Also remove "Follow your passion Are you ready..." maybe that's marketing fluff but it's substantive about mission; we can keep as part of About the role.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep specifics like salary range, start date, location, etc.
We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state salary range, bonus, benefits, work model, start date. So we can include those.
Now produce HTML.
Structure:
About the role
... (mission description + role at a glance details except salary maybe)
But we need to ensure we don't duplicate content across sections. Let's decide.
About the role: include mission paragraph and role at a glance (excluding salary maybe). Could include start date, location, work model, reports to, hiring timeline.
Responsibilities: list from "What you'll be doing".
Requirements: education and experience: Bachelor's degree, min 1 year as Assistant Principal, min 2 years classroom teaching.
Qualifications: deep understanding of effective Middle School Humanities or STEM instruction, experience using student work, assessment data, classroom observations to identify gaps, coach instructional teams to adjust instruction, drive 90%+ of students to grade level mastery by end-of-year, proven ability to develop people, build high-performing teams, inspire others toward ambitious goals, strong judgment, ability to navigate complex challenges with clarity, urgency, solutions-oriented thinking, high expectations for yourself and others, deep ownership of team's growth and students' success.
Skills: maybe overlapping with qualifications; but we could treat qualifications as skills. However we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But instruction says use headings for those categories if content exists. We could have Requirements (education/experience) and Qualifications (skills/abilities). That seems fine.
Benefits: list from "How does Zeta invest in you?" including medical/dental/vision, FSA, 403(b) matching, relocation support, monthly stipend for wellness, Talkspace sessions, Headspace, MacBook Air, phone reimbursement, stocked snacks, swag, team outings, sweet treats, books/resources for PD, clear pathways to professional growth, consistent feedback, Community Circle, Interactive Mindfulness and DEIJ programming.
Pay: salary range $105,000 - $122,000 starting salary, plus eligibility for annual discretionary merit-based performance bonus.
Schedule: work model: Fully on-site in New York City; start date: Early July 2027.
We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Now produce HTML.
Make sure to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use
.
We need to decide what is a list: Responsibilities bullet list, Requirements maybe list, Qualifications list, Benefits list, Pay maybe not a list (just prose), Schedule maybe not a list.
Let's craft.
About the role: combine mission paragraph and role at a glance details (excluding salary). We'll write a few sentences.
Mission paragraph: "At Zeta, we pursue an unprecedented combination of high academic achievement and social-emotional development for our students. We insist that every student receives a world-class education while fostering a love for learning. We are passionate about changing the landscape of public education in New York City and beyond, and we are uncompromising in our mission. Zeta serves students across the Bronx, Upper Manhattan, and Queens and continues to grow our Pre-K through 12th grade network at an ambitious pace. This year alone, we opened our first high school, added another elementary school in Queens, and launched two additional middle schools in the Bronx. And we are not slowing down. We have big plans to continue growing each year so that more children have access to an excellent education. Joining Zeta means joining a team that is actively building the next generation of our school network and serving as a change agent for children."
Then role at a glance: "Role: Assistant Principal of Middle School (Humanities or STEM concentration); Start date: Early July 2027; Location: Bronx or Upper Manhattan; Work model: Fully on-site in New York City; Reports to: Principal; Hiring: positions become available throughout the year with rolling onboarding; Compensation determined by Zeta's applicable salary scale factoring relevant experience and internal equity; eligible for annual discretionary merit-based performance bonus."
But we might move compensation to Pay section. So maybe exclude compensation from About the role. We'll keep start date, location, work model, reports to, hiring timeline.
Thus About the role paragraph will be mission + those details.
Now Responsibilities: list from "What you'll be doing". Let's extract each bullet:
- Build a joyful, safe, and intellectually rigorous school culture that unites leaders, teachers, staff, students, and families around a shared vision of excellence.
- Foster authentic and trusting relationships with staff, students, and families, creating a strong foundation for collaboration, belonging, and student success.
- Uphold and model the highest standards of Humanities instructional excellence, ensuring deep content knowledge, purposeful planning, and high-quality implementation across English and History classrooms.
- Lead academic outcomes using a data-driven, results-oriented approach, monitoring progress in English and History across grades 6–8 to ensure every student meets ambitious goals.
- Coach, develop, and inspire English and History teaching teams to deliver exceptional instruction, strong social-emotional learning, and effective classroom culture and management.
- Analyze academic, cultural, and behavioral data across Humanities teams, identifying trends and executing strategic action plans that leverage school leaders, teachers, and families to accelerate student growth.
- Model a culture of problem-solving, ownership, and unwavering commitment to student achievement, setting the tone for excellence within the school leadership team.
- Contribute as a key member of the school's leadership team, shaping systems, routines, and structures that drive high-quality execution and long-term success.
We'll put each as
- .
Requirements: education and experience:

- Minimum of 2 years of classroom teaching experience
We'll list.

- Strong judgment and the ability to navigate complex challenges with clarity, urgency, and solutions-oriented thinking
- High expectations for yourself and others, paired with deep ownership of your team's growth and students' success
We'll list.
Benefits: list from "How does Zeta invest in you?" plus maybe "Join our purpose-driven community" but that's more culture. We'll include benefits:
- Comprehensive and affordable medical, dental, and vision plans
